A Belgian Sci-Fi on Netflix

One of the best things about Netflix is that they give the opportunity to different artists around the world to show what they do best. Although this leads to a large amount of productions, lacking in quality, this also brings about a long awaited variety in movies and shows, especially in our genre. On Friday the first season of Into the Dark was uploaded on the streaming platform - a Belgian post-apocalyptic thriller. The show is about a plane, which always has to fly West. The Sun has suddenly become deadly and has destroyed half of the life on Earth and the only hope for the survivors is to do anything possible to always travel by night.

Jason George is the creator and producer, he has worked on other international Netflix productions – Jin, Gift, The Protector, but also on way more popular series, such as Narcos, Scandal and The Blacklist.
